Leafs get Peca
Taking less money so he could play for his hometown Maple Leafs, Mike Peca signed for $2.5M in a one year deal after the Leafs said their goodbyes to Eric Lindros. I was sincerely hoping my Sens would make a pitch for #37, and if his asking price was $2.5M for any team, I don't see the price being the problem. Looks like Peca had his sights set for Toronto and nowhere else, with his family living in nearby Buffalo it probably made sense for him from that point of view.Peca has a dismal regular season with Edmonton but stood out in the playoffs and played some of his best hockey in recent memory. If I were a Leafs fan though, I wouldn't be planning the Stanley Cup parade route just yet. Their younger kids will need to step up, Sundin will need some linemates, their D needs to provide more than a good powerplay and one of Raycroft, Aubin or Tellqvist needs to be a true #1 goaltender. Having said all that, a respected veteran presence like Mike Peca can't do anything but help. Oh yeah, so long as he can get along with Darcy Tucker.

Lovely.
As a Leafs fan, all I hear all season long from Sens fans is how stupid, deluded, untalented (maybe that one's true?), and unrealistic we all are, and then I read something like the above...
What a fantastically ignorant comment.
The City of Ottawa wouldn't pony up the dough for a Grey Cup parade, what makes you think they'd hold one for the Stanley Cup?
Also, there's the little matter of actually winning it first, which of course I understand is fairly difficult.

Just like a sens fan, has an opportunity to do something (make an interesting comment) and can’t even get that right…I guess the sens fans have the same fate as the sens chocking when it counts!!!

Listen jerkfaces, leave the City of Ottawa alone....We didn't plan a parade for the Grey Cup because
a) there was a Santa Claus parade the week before and
b) No one freakin' cares about the CFL.
